Presented on: Wednesday, September 22, 2021

Webinar Sponsored by MAPEI

Presented by: Brian Stratman, P.E., Business Development Leader, Corrosion and Structural Strengthening

Corrosion of the reinforcing steel in concrete structures is the number one reason for premature deterioration of these structures. The cost of repairing this deterioration across North America easily runs into the billions of dollars on an annual basis. Utilizing MAPEI Corporation’s corrosion mitigation and prevention solutions can save owners millions of dollars in repair costs and ensures continued operation of bridge spans and other structures.

After an overview of the basics of the electrochemical corrosion process, you will learn about the various corrosion mitigation products and technologies available from MAPEI Corporation – advantages and limitations, expected service life, compatibility with other products, and ease of installation. Webinar attendees will be able to confidently determine which technology is best suited for a given application to ensure the longest lasting repair option at the most efficient cost.
